Fish Symbols—allows you to determine how the graph shows

underwater targets and background information. If fish symbols

are set to Off, the unit shows all available information about the

underwater environment. If a fish symbol is selected, the graph

shows only the information related to that symbol. Actual fish

returns can not always appear as perfect arches (like in Simulator

Mode), due to the speed, fish orientation, or other conditions.
